Hello.
After finally beating the story (loved it btw !), I'm doing a new playthrough, this time with a Wolfpack-type fleet. I'm having troubles unlocking Hostile Takeover and I'm wondering what is a "proper fleet" and being "qualified". Is only a minimum level required ? I messed around with the console commands and it seems that I need to be level 14 to unlock the quest, regardless of my fleet's composition (I tried buying a couple of cruisers to see if I could unlock the quest sooner, but the level requirement stayed the same).
Level 14 is a too high in my opinion, especially since you can do a combat focused build and heavily expand your fleet power with a piloted flagship. I wonder if lowering the minimum level to 10 wouldn't be better.
